Pondering On Nirvana
Pondering on Nirvana
The meditator mediates her thoughts meanders through
confusion and the onslaught overkilled by oscillating storms
Nothingness emptiness detachment as she does not wish to
be fragmented any longer but the Lotus flower seems
Appears to have departed the mantras has deserted her and her visions
are merely a picture of Guernica in which rotten demise remains
Her poetry resounds blank sentences a piece of paper fountain pain
pricked pen idle dried ink and empty hollow words craving expression
Her begging bowl scrambles for what is or is not meant to be seeks
the truth darkens memories of a blotchy future so far untold
Seeds are waiting to flourish agonise antagonise before the
waiting game is over and reality settles on her tired restless mind
The moment bargains like a Faustian pact entices temptations
doubts resolve capitulation yet fails once more the sweet surrender
When evening falls again she levitates on the putrid stench of
humanity while smells of roses have succumbed to thorns alone
Reflecting moons however guide shooting stars alleviate the scorching sun
so she resolves to try in hope once more when new tomorrow beckons
